67 km, Kralupy nad Vltavou-Senohraby
Today was similar to when we went through Berlin some days ago, except much hillier. The first 25 km was going through long hills in Kralupy, fields, villages that became more and more urban. We were just on the outskirts of Prague when we passed our 2000 km mark.
In Prague we enjoyed eating in parks, watching the view from another park, and passed the Norwegian embassy.
Going shopping, going to museums, and even crossing Karlov Most or other areas with thousands of tourists is not so much on the wish list when travelling with a bicycle cart full of stuff. We had a good experience cycling through the city though.
Sometimes we think it would have been easier to travel with nothing but a credit card in the back pocket. Isak did that once for two weeks, well, almost. Some tools, and one set of extra clothes, etc fit fine in the bottom of a light backpack. Most of the clothes we brought has been dead weight. As you can see from the photos from lately, Isak has worn the same t-shirt, washed daily by hand. It is so warm here it pretty much dries on the way to the dinner. :-)
Reading weather reports from home, +8 C in the morning, and +12 C in the afternoon feels surreal and very far away now. In the afternoon sunny uphills those temperatures sound like paradize sometimes. :-)
30 degrees warm and hills make our journey a lot harder than we imagined. We hope tough that we won't run out of time, and that we can enjoy a nice rest in Hungary soon.
